"Come on in!" Sky Blue shouted hurriedly.

The Paparals were short, and the last one ran in, and the older knight Dikt slammed the door shut. A flickering axe blade broke through the door, like a frost tooth growing out of the plank, startling everyone.

"What the hell are these things?!" Parker grabbed his head and ran away, screaming.

"Dead Executioners, level fourteen undead creatures, skeleton/half-ghost subspecies, their attack belts break attributes and necrogangrene effects, deal extra damage to armor, and suppress healing." Kita replied hunched over and panting. Her huge glasses slid straight down, and she frantically held on to her hands.

"I know, I know, I'm asking how they got here?"

"They were the executioners of Dorifin's last Archon, and Deckeren Grossle, the last of Dorifin's Archons, was born on the Shores of the Scepter, inheriting the cruel and bloodthirsty traditions of the local aristocracy, and had a number of executioners with considerable family roots." Momiji replied.

"Oh, that's great news." Parker said the opposite.

Several knightly summoners of Tapolis brought the cabinet against the door, but to no avail, the axe slashed the door open, splitting the cabinet in two pieces up and down.

"I can't stop it, Momiji!" One of the knights looked back and said with some anxiety.

"Go to the second floor, those undead in the mayor's office can't get in."

So the people abandoned their positions and hurriedly retreated.

Fang Plover turned his head and just saw the scene of the dry bone giant holding a giant axe breaking through the door, the wooden door shattered, and the sawdust rolled up dead leaves like the autumn wind, and they were flying one after another.

He turned around again to catch up with the others, and asked, "Momiji, what the hell is going on, why are you here?" What about the people of the Dragonfire Guild? ”

Momiji glanced at him with slanted eyes, and snorted dissatisfiedly, as if Fang Yu owed her thousands of dollars—writing all the hatred on his face: "Are you a member of the Knights, what obligation do I have to tell you?" ”

"Huh?"

"Hmph, do you feel that you have made a big splash in Elpahim, so you look down on our small temple?"

What the hell is this, but Fang Yu understands that Hongye is angry that he didn't answer her positively last time. But it was impossible for him to join the Knights of the Oak of Tapolis, so he had to ask the others, "Miss Attila, how did you meet?" ”

"When we arrived here, we met the people of the 'eldest sister' and fought with them once, and it was Miss Momiji who came to help us out of the siege." Atira replied succinctly, looking Fang Yu up and down, and then nervously at his injured right arm, and asked, "Are you alright?" ”

Fang Plover replied a little embarrassed, "I'm fine, Miss Attila. ”

Momiji sneered: "It's just a skin injury, this guy's life is very big, I don't think he can die." ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Miss Hongye, thank you for helping us once, but you don't have a recruiting attitude, right?" ”

"Self-inflicted, I'm helping Kita, what does it have to do with you." Momiji replied, "By the way, if you don't join our guild, don't want to soak in our Jita." ”

"Sister Momiji!" Kita blushed and shouted angrily.

Fang Yu also almost hit his head against the wall.

The town hall is a four-storey building designed with defensive considerations in mind, and looks like a small fortress in appearance. The internal structure also borrows from the castle configuration of Aitalia, with heavy brick walls, spiral stairs, and perforations, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Don't say that the undead in the core area can't enter, but they can come in, Fang Yu feels that with the terrain, he can also guard it for a long time.

When the group came to the second floor, Momiji didn't seem to be the first time to be here, and led everyone through a long corridor with ease, pushed open a door, and entered the mayor's office.

Fang Yu looked at the place, the space was quite spacious, not far away was a long window with thick velvet curtains dragging on the ground, covering it tightly; In front of the window is a desk with a few miscellaneous books, flanked by a row of long cabinets for materials and archives.

Everything was covered with a thick layer of dust, as if everything had come from the other side of the river of time.

In the center of the hall was a carpet with a bronze planetarium on it, the same dull surface, and a dry skeleton lay next to the planetar, in a prostrate position.

There were seven or eight Chosen Knights of Tapolis in the group, and Momiji gave them an order: "Everyone rest and recuperate. ”

She turned her head and saw that Fang Yuan's gaze was falling on the dry bone: "This is the undead leader with the arrogant scepter in his hand, if everything is in order, we can leave this place after defeating it." ”

"If everything is fine?" Fang Yu raised his head: "What the hell is going on, how did you come to this place?" ”

Hongye hesitated for a moment, obviously she was still a little angry with this stunned boy, and said in a muffled voice: "Naturally, someone invited us here." ”

"Mission?"

Momiji nodded: "A big task, it is our guild that has been entrusted with it, and we have sent two regiments to carry out this task." I'm not the person in charge, the person in charge is the person above, they originally asked me to see the world, who knew what happened. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but think of the nighthawk of the Knights of Tapolis Oak who had a relationship in Grey Oak Square, and the casual glance of the other party gave him a deep impression: "Is your person in charge a nighthawk?" ”

"Right?" Momiji was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”

"Do you know what happened in Grey Oak Square?"

"You mean Hu Di snatching the blade of false victory? I didn't expect him to be so bold, in fact, I've been looking for him these days, after all, we've fought side by side in Traveler's Rest. ”

Fang Yu nodded: "We were there at the time. ”

Hongye looked at Fang Yu and the others a little suddenly: "It turns out that you are the ones who entered the illusion world today?" ”

"Today?" Sylvid on the side looked a little sharp.

Momiji instinctively glanced at the woman with some suspicion, although it was not the first time the two had met, but people were always a little wary of the same sex who were too good - except, of course, for those who were heartless like Sky Blue.

"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you," she replied, "and you may not know yet, there's something wrong here, and now this illusion can get in and out, and we've been stuck here for more than half a week. ”

"Can you get in or out?" As soon as these words came out, everyone else on Fang Yuan's side except him was surprised, and Tianlan even shouted: "Ah, our ship! ”

"Boats? What ship? Momiji looked at the little girl strangely.

Tianlan seemed to remember that this topic should be kept secret, and her eyes rolled: "Secret." ”

Momiji glared at her angrily: "Dead girl." ”

Her eyes turned and fell on Fang Yuan: "You don't seem to be surprised at all. ”

"Mr. Dickert was not surprised." Fang Yu looked at the older knight, who was standing aside with his sword, and only turned back when he heard someone mention him, with a poker face and an expressionless face.

Attila shook her head: "Now is not the time to joke, Mr. Diktor, he's a paladin, Ed, do you know anything?" ”

Fang Yu nodded and said, "I actually had such a guess before, specifically because of Hu Di. Because there is no way to enter this illusion without entering the inn room, Hu Di obviously does not meet this condition, do you remember what he said when he met us? ”

"Ah, yes!" Tianlan reacted at this time: "Why didn't I think of this, he asked us to leave quickly, because he knew about the changes here, right?" In other words, he was already in a fantasy at that time? ”

Momiji replied to her, "I don't know about your situation, but Hu Di should have entered this illusion before us. ”

Tianlan sighed somewhat exaggeratedly: "Earlier than you? So how long has he been in this illusion? ”

"Have you ever thought that Hu Di came here directly after leaving the Traveler's Rest, and if he stayed elsewhere, it would be too late in time?" Fang Yu said suddenly.

"It seems like that's really the case," Momiji glanced at him with some surprise, "I didn't expect you to think so carefully-"

Fang Yu shook his head.

He thought of this directly because of Nicol Bolas, two places so close together and connected to the Dark Dragon at the same time, it was hard not to be connected.

He was thinking about what was the reason behind Hudi coming to this place directly after leaving the Traveler's Rest without saying goodbye to them?

He couldn't help asking, "Momiji, do you know your employer?" ”

Momiji looked at his companions a little uneasily, and shook his head repeatedly: "I can't tell you this, and I don't know." ”

Fang Yu realized that he was abrupt, and hurriedly apologized: "That, I didn't mean to." ”

Momiji is a little funny. "Don't worry, I know."

Fang Yu asked another thing: "By the way, why is the 'eldest sister' here?" ”

"Who knows?" Speaking of this person, Hongye looked worried: "When they go out, the knights will make them look good, just a dragon fire guild." ”

"What's wrong?" Seeing that her attitude was different, Fang Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.

Ji Ta added in a whisper on the side: "The people of the Dragon Fire Guild attacked Sister Momiji, so everyone had to hide in the illusion world. ”

Fang Yu only understood when he heard this, and said in surprise: "It was you who blocked Dorifen before?" ”

"It's the employer's request, and we can't reveal our identity yet." Momiji flicked his long hair and replied a little boredly: "Who knew that there would be a Cheng Biting Gold halfway." ”

"The Dragon Fire Guild seems to be a little-known small guild, and they are not afraid of your revenge?"

Momiji gritted his teeth: "God knows, not only are they not afraid of retaliation, but they are also chasing and killing into the illusion realm, which is to drive us out." ”

Fang Yu was puzzled: "But didn't you inform the general association, why didn't we see the people you came to support?" ”

Hongye glanced at him: "Why didn't you notify me, it's not because of you, Elpahim is now forbidden, don't talk about us, the people of the Spear of the Silver Forest can't come out." ”

Only then did Fang Yu realize that it was his own basket, he broke out in a cold sweat, and said with a dry smile: "Haha, the weather is good today." ”

The knights of Tapolis on the side didn't care about this, but listened to his stubble and couldn't help laughing.

Momiji couldn't help but point at these people one by one, and said angrily: "The culprit is in front of you, you are good, and you can laugh." ”

But the knights didn't give her any face, and retorted nonchalantly: "Momiji, it's not right for you to say that, the culprit is the people of the Dragon Fire Guild, we all know it, not to mention that Tapolis has no tradition of being angry with people; And Mr. Ed is a famous alchemist, and it is obvious to all that he defeated the Guta people, hehe, you have such a good relationship with him, and you tricked him into the guild with a beauty trick. ”

Momiji was furious: "Who has a good relationship with him?" Shut up! Then he turned his head and glared at Fang Yu fiercely.

Fang Yu was also shot while lying down, which can only mean that he is innocent.

The others had a playful attitude, but Shesta had a straight face and a look of disdain.

However, Fang Yu always felt that there was a problem in his heart, how could the Dragon Fire Guild provoke a behemoth many times stronger than himself for no reason, even if there might be a lot of benefits in this task, it was not worth taking the risk.

What's more, the Dragon Fire Guild clearly looks like it is going to kill it all, this is the rhythm of not dying.

He thought as he walked to the window—the mayor's office felt strange to him, as if it wasn't empty, and that something was lingering in the silent space.

If he had calmed down, he would have heard some plausible voices that lingered in his ears, such as whispering, arguing, and talking, but when he came back to his senses, he felt that it was an auditory hallucination, and the whispers in his mind were gone.

Fang Yu couldn't help but look around carefully, only to notice that the shadows in this office were a little strange, Sylvid was holding a glowing cone-shaped crystal in her hand, but the shadows did not grow against the light, but flowed like water in the corners.

He suddenly lifted the curtains, and the firelight of the lower town poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, sweeping away the darkness in the room, and the shadows in the corners were like a layer of smoke.

But there's nothing behind that—

But he was a little disappointed.

He subconsciously looked out the window, and couldn't help but gasp, the forest outside the city hall was crowded with undead at some point, and from a distance, it was white and vast, like an ocean.

Compared to this, the wave of undead seen in the forest the night before was nothing but a small amount.

The others also looked a little solemn when they saw this scene.

"Originally, we were evenly matched with the Dragon Worship Sect, if it weren't for that guy from Hu Di, who released the shadow of the past and caused these undead to appear," Momiji walked over and said a little unwillingly: "Now with the help of the undead, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the city hall to hold ...... in the future."

"Your mission is related to the Dragon-worshippers?" Fang Plover then remembered what he had seen and heard in Fisherman's Alley during the day, the traces left by the Nighthawk's penetrating shots there, and now thought that the two sides who had come to fight should be the Worshippers and the Oak Knights of Tapolis.

Momiji nodded, "Our mission was originally to prevent the Dragon Worshippers from entering Dorifin. ”

"What?" Fang Yu was taken aback, and it was like a lightning bolt in his mind, dispelling the original fog at once: "Could it be that the Dragon Fire Guild is colluding with the Dragon Worship Sect?" ”

Momiji was also incredulous, and subconsciously shook his head: "Impossible!" Unless they're crazy! ”

The Korin-Eshurian master, at least for now, is still the kingdom of Korin, and the Chosen are not taboo in Aitalia, and the governments of the Earth have signed the relevant provisions with the Aitarian states - the Chosen must abide by most of the laws and moral consensus on the Earth in this world, as well as most of the laws and regulations of the native kingdom in which they live.

Collusion with cultists is strictly forbidden, and violators will not only be wanted by other countries in Aitaria and return to Earth, but will also be held legally responsible, which is equivalent to participating in illegal assemblies, cults, and terrorist organizations in reality.

Although there have been no mad fanatics in the Star Gate Age for so many years, there has never been such a thing as an entire guild colluding with a cult.

After all, how could a Elector involve himself in the real world for the sake of Aitalia's affairs? Even if they are lawless, they must accept the constraints of their real identity.

But she had to admit that Fang Yuan's consideration was very likely, and that words were like opening a Pandora's box, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she felt.

"They, could it be that they have deceived the Dragon Worship Sect...... How dare they ...... like that," Momiji muttered to himself with some incomprehension.

Fang Yu shook his head: "There is such a possibility, but the possibility is very small. It is impossible for them not to know the Dragonists, and I have seen the corpses of the Dragons in the forests outside. ”

Momiji was a little speechless, and said uneasily, "I have to tell the others about this immediately and inform the guild." ”

"Wait a minute," Fang Yuan's heart seemed to have a string touched, and some broken chains in his mind seemed to be connecting with each other: "You just said that these undead only appeared today?" ”

Momiji froze for a moment.

She looked at Fang Yu and nodded, "Is there any problem?" ”

"It's a big problem." Fang Yuan's expression was serious, and he replied word by word. "I think I've found the root of everything that happened to Dorifin."

When everyone heard this, they all stopped and looked at him.
